A top price for Oleg Zinger
In October 2012 Christies in London held the auction Posters With A Purpose: The London Transport Museum Sale, which included the work The Zoo, Chameleon by Oleg Zinger. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 3,000.00 (€ 3,729.97), 50% above the upper estimate. This high result makes The Zoo, Chameleon the most expensive artwork by Oleg Zinger that we have observed at auctions so far.
